Kooks Double Page Spread (using exsisting images)


Again i used the convention of a banner across the top of the page to be used as an headline/quote from the text to entice the reader.However even though i believe this magazine is effective it was hard to incorporate the vibrant colour scheme i have being pursuing and aims at the other spectrum of the indie scale and can end up looking bland and loosing the readers then interest.Also i again used the whole left side of the double page spread dedicated to the main focus of the article, i believe this is effective however due to the dull colour scheme made it hard to incorporate the bands logo else both the text and image merged and it became hard to read so i kept the colour as block white however i believe this isn't very effective and cause the text and image to be segregated making the cover look amateurish and to regimented.
On the right hand side of the double page spread i used a cartoon black and white background i believe this was effective as i gave a simple background that didn't hinder the min focus of the spread but gave and interesting and unique appearance to catch the initial attention of the reader.I believe the paper with the text on segregates different aspects of the text and different sections without being over bearing.
I again Incorporated a few images of the band to link to the text and used a simple block black border to make the images stand out as they aren't very large.

Overall even though i believe this double page is effective i don't think it would fully fit with my target audience and the conventions of my magazine i am going to pursue however it gave me an idea of the versatility of my genre but didn't enable me to capture m readers attention how i want and use the colour scheme my target audience preferred.
